Counterfight (Stington & Partner Legal GmbH) · Munich · On-site · Full-time
About the role
Counterfight is a legal-tech company turning music usage on social media into licensed revenue for rights holders — without takedowns or friction. The model works, the pipeline is live, and we're signing clients. We're looking for a Founders Associate to work directly alongside the founder in Munich and build the operational backbone of the company: the processes, frameworks, and infrastructure that turn a working idea into a company that runs and scales.
This is a broad, high-ownership role for someone who likes structure — you'll take what currently runs through the founder's head and turn it into clear, repeatable systems the business can grow on.
What you'll do
- Build and own the operational infrastructure behind our core pipeline: detection, client outreach, contracts, and revenue
- Design the processes and frameworks for client onboarding, case management, and reporting so nothing falls through the cracks
- Set up the internal systems, tooling, and documentation a scaling company needs
- Turn ad-hoc, founder-dependent processes into structured, repeatable playbooks
- Take on whatever is broken, missing, or blocking the founder — across ops, BD support, and projects
What you bring
- 1–3 years in operations, project management, consulting, or a similar role (early-stage startup experience a strong plus)
- A structured, systems-oriented mind — you naturally turn chaos into process
- Comfort with data and business tools, and the ability to pick up new software fast
- A proactive ownership mindset and the confidence to work independently
- 0-to-1 instinct — you've built something from nothing where the spec was "figure it out"
- Fluent English (German is a plus)
- Bonus: interest or background in legal-tech, music, or rights management
What we offer
- A front-row seat next to the founder — learn how a legal-tech company is built, sold, and scaled, from the inside
- Real ownership and broad responsibility from day one
- A 6-month engagement on salary, with a clear path to a permanent role and VSOP (equity) options on conversion
- A high-trust, fast-moving environment with direct mentorship and no bureaucracy
- A modern on-site workplace in Munich
